Learning histories

Felicity, I'm intrigued by the phrase "learning history: kaleidoscope" - what does this involve?

Kaleidoscope

 Kaleidoscope is an online tool which learners can use to reflect on themeselves as leanguage learners. It is free, open software so do go and take a look for yourself. It does need a little updating and we are planning to do this during the coming year, if and when we find the time.

The texts the students write in Kaleidoscope forms the basis for the first counselling meeting we have with them, when we discuss the principles of autonomy and their propsed learning programme.
